Facteurs et contraintes de la pêche de marché en Amazonie centrale: le cas d'un lac de plaine inondée (le "Lago do Rei", Amazonas, Brésil)

Abstract

Following the observation that the commercial landings of fish on Manaus market are predominantly produced by the floodplain fishenes, a detailed case study was conducted in a floodplain lake near Manaus. The general characteristics of the fisheries exhibit a high level of complexity which can be reduced by considering two types of fisheries: a migration fishery and a lacustnne one.
